Syllabus

Consecutive Sentences; R.C. 2929.14(C)(4) findings; Presentence Investigation. Prison sentences may be imposed consecutively once the trial court makes the findings required by R.C. 2929.14(C)(4). On appeal, reviewing courts are permitted under R.C. 2953.08(G)(2) to examine whether the trial court's consecutive-sentences findings are supported by the record. On review, appellate courts are to apply a deferential standard in evaluating the support for these R.C. 2929.14(C)(4) findings.
